Canada and U.S.A. store.
I would like to recommend 'Mike's Darts and Accessories', basically an e-bay store but you can contact him personally for great deals. He is based in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Very fast and cheap shipping and anything he doesn't have he can order...J.D.

How are his prices compared to ordering from across the pond?

Very good in my opinion. The biggest saving is on shipping. You can order multiple items and it's the same shipping as for one item. Go to his e-bay site and compare...J.D.

He's got nothing listed currently, no stock. "On Holidays"

I think I looked at him before though, dart prices were higher but shipping was definitely lower and of course would be faster just coming across the country.

Lol, yeah he's gone till the 10th. I only get shafts and flights from him and compared to my nearest dart shop, he's cheaper...J.D.

It's a good heads up for Canadian folks for sure, especially if you don;t want to wait too long to get your stuff.

Speaking in general, not just about Mike, I've found that when I've ordered stuff from Canada (I'm in Los Angeles) shipping has taken a really long time. Even longer than stuff from Pure in the UK. US Customs? Dunno. Anyway, that said, I like Mike and will order from him again, I'm sure.
26's so far this year: I've already lost count. :-)

US and Canada customs are RIDICULOUS.

Canada customs doesn't trust the USA and vice versa.

Not to mention the 2 postal services in general don't play well with each other. It is less expensive for me to ship a package from Alberta to the UK than it is to ship from here to Montana (90 minute drive)

Not to mention the ridiculous duty and customs charges...

This is why I never buy from the USA

When I buy stuff from the U.S. [mostly bike stuff] I use the U.P.S. store nearest me in [Niagara Falls, N.Y.] as a delivery address. I know folks not near the border can't do this but luckily I can...J.D.

Nobody trusts anybody anymore, or ever. customs suck between USofA and Canada. I order blades from a guy in Niagra Falls, Can and he crosses the border into Buffalo to get them to me quicker and for less shipping charges

I've been looking for places in Canada place orders with. I think i'll give this guy a try.

I avoid ordering anything from the U.S if I can for the reasons given above. It just ends up being too much of a hassle and expense unfortunately.
